Finished Addison's room.. The walls are now Pink you cant really tell.

A Z shirt for Zion

A G Shirt for a special Baby girl with a matching Tutu

just the G Shirt

And while I was being so Domestic, Sitting on the floor of my craft room thinking about how I wish I knew more little girs so I could make cute girly clothes, and thinking about how I hope that Addison gets invited to some birthday parties soon because it would be super cute to make tutus as gifts. My kids were playing ever so nicely together.... or so I thought.

We have finally gotten Zion and the babys room almost ready, just a few minor things to do.Zions side of the room. Yes the guy has some blankets, he just chooses to use only one.Door View. Im contemplating painting a mural of a VW Bus on that wall but havent decided yet. Hopefully my Sister in Law Kari will make us another door sign too.Rocking Chair side. We are looking for a lamp or small light to put by the chair so I can see at night but not bright enoug to wake Zion up.Babys Bed I made all of the crib stuff when it was Zions bed, however Zion did a number on it so I had to take it all apart and remake it. I still have to dye a sheet to match. The empty spot above his bed is for his name.And the long awaited name is...Wait who put those balls on my letters?

So Zion has been the best sleeper any mom could ever ask for. He would go to bed at 7 and not wake up until 8 the next day. Up until about about a month ago he was still taking a morning and an afternoon nap. I started weeding out the morning nap so he would just take an afternoon nap. He was doing great with it until the end of last week, and then all hell has broken loose. He is refuseing to take any nap at all, just wants to cuddel with me, if he happens to fall asleep while on my chest, he wakes up as soon as I get up to lay him down. At night he will not lay down at all. Screams, kicks, climbs out of bed. Blah blah blah. He yells No Night night mama no night night please no night night. I will finally get him up after the 134352 time of laying him back down bring him out and rock him to sleep, he will fall asleep on my chest but again as soon as I get up to put him in bed, hes up. So today I finally broke down and took him to the Dr. to make sure he didn't have something medically wrong with him. Ears, Teeth, throat... etc. Nope everything is GREAT. She said that he is just super stressed? Oh the stresses of being 2? Having mom wait on you hand and foot, having mom all to yourself everyday from 8-11, going to the park and story time with just mom. Its such a rough life. So we are trying to ease his stress, Im not really sure how. She suggested we try benadryl and warm milk before we try to lay him down at night. So we are trying it. Hopefully it works. This is one tired mama, After being use to him sleeping 12-14 hours a night down to 5 really wears down this prego lady
